- it relates to light sensitive silver halide emulsions sensitized in the presence of organic dichalcogenides.
- Fog is a deposit of silver or dye that is not directly related to the image-forming exposure, i.e., when a developer acts upon an emulsion layer, some reduced silver is formed in areas that have not been exposed to light.
- Fog can be defined as a developed density that is not associated with the action of the image-forming exposure, and is usually expressed as "Dmin", the density obtained in the unexposed portions of the emulsion.

- dichalcogenide compounds of this invention can be prepared by the various methods known to those skilled in the art.
- the optimal amount of the dichalcogenide compound to be added will depend on the desired final result, the type of emulsion, the degree of ripening, dichalcogenide structure and other variables.
- concentration of dichalcogenide which is adequate is from about 1 ⁇ 10 -9 to about 1 ⁇ 10 -2 mol/mol Ag, with 1 ⁇ 10 -7 to 1 ⁇ 10 -2 mol/mol Ag being preferred and about 1 ⁇ 10 -5 to 3 ⁇ 10 -4 mol/mol Ag being most preferred.
- the dichalcogenide compounds are added as taught herein, the same antifogging response can be achieved with far less of the dichalcogenide compound than is required if the compounds are added as melt additives.
- the dichalcogenide compounds of this invention can be added to the photographic emulsion using any technique suitable for this purpose. They can be added from solutions or as solids. For example, they can be dissolved in a suitable water miscible solvent and added directly to the silver halide emulsion as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,397,986 or they can be added to the emulsion in the form of a liquid/liquid dispersion similar to the technique used with certain couplers. Examples of suitable solvents or diluents include methanol, ethanol, or acetone.
- the most preferred method of addition is as a solid particle dispersion.
- the aqueous, solid particle dispersions are prepared by milling an aqueous slurry of dichalcogenide and surfactant using known milling technology. Examples of suitable milling equipment include a ball mill and a SWECO mill. Descriptions of other general milling techniques which may be used with this invention may be found in Patton, Temple C. Paint Flow and Pigment Dispersion, Second Edition, Wiley-Interscience, New York, 1979, hereafter referred to as Patton.
- milling media examples are zirconium oxide beads or silicon carbide sand.
- the milling temperature may be room temperature or slightly higher ( ⁇ 30° C.).
- Appropriate surfactants include, among others, Triton® X-200 (Rohm & Haas Company, Philadelphia, Pa.) an alkylated arylpolyether sulfonate and other anionic surfactants.
- the milled particles should be less than 1 micron.
- the slurry is separated from the media by coarse filtration. Generally the slurry is then diluted to working strength with a gelatin solution although it is not necessary to do so. As an alternative, the slurry can be used directly. Sonification may be used if necessary to break up aggregates. Alternatively the slurry and beads can be diluted into a gelatin solution and the beads separated from the final dispersion by coarse filtration. Characterization of the final dispersion for dichalcogenide content may be made by spectrophotometric analysis and for particle size by microscopy. For additional description of this technique see concurrently filed U.S. application Ser. No. 869,678 entitled "Aqueous, Solid Particle Dispersions of Dichalcogenides for Photographic Emulsions and Coatings", Boettcher et al., incorporated herein by reference.
- Photographic emulsions are generally prepared by precipitating silver halide crystals in a colloidal matrix by methods conventional in the art.
- the colloid is typically a hydrophilic film forming agent such as gelatin, alginic acid, or derivatives thereof.
- the crystals formed in the precipitation step are chemically and spectrally sensitized, as known in the art.
- Chemical sensitization of the emulsion employs sensitizers such as sulfur-containing compounds, e.g., allyl isothiocyanate, sodium thiosulfate and allyl thiourea; reducing agents, e.g., polyamines and stannous salts; noble metal compounds, e.g., gold, platinum and diethylsenide; and polymeric agents, e.g., polyalkylene oxides.
- a temperature rise is employed to complete chemical sensitization (heat spike).
- Spectral sensitization is effected with agents such as sensitizing dyes.
- dyes are added in the spectral sensitization step using any of a multitude of agents described in the art. It is known to add such dyes both before and after the heat spike.
- the emulsion is coated on a support.
- Various coating techniques include dip coating, air knife coating, curtain coating and extrusion coating.
- the dichalcogenide compounds can be added anytime after precipitation and before or during the heat spike employed to affect chemical sensitization. This time frame is referred to herein as spectral/chemical sensitization.
- the dichalcogenide compounds may be added before or after the addition of sensitizers but preferably before the sensitizers. They can be added from the beginning or part-way-through the sensitization process.
- the emulsion is sensitized with sulfur and gold compounds as known in the art.
- Combinations of the dichalcogenide compounds may be added i.e. two or more of Formula II or Formula III compounds, or a combination of Formula II and III compounds.
- the dichalcogenide compounds also may be added in combination with other antifoggants and finish modifiers.
- the method of this invention is particularly useful with intentionally or unintentionally reduction sensitized emulsions.
- reduction sensitization has been known to improve the photographic sensitivity of silver halide emulsions.
- Reduction sensitization can be performed intentionally by adding reduction sensitizers, chemicals which reduce silver ions to form metallic silver atoms, or by providing a reducing environment such as high pH (excess hydroxide ion) and/or low pAg (excess silver ion).
- unintentional reduction sensitization can occur when silver nitrate or alkali solutions are added rapidly or with poor mixing to form emulsion grains, for example.
- silver halide emulsions precipitated in the presence of ripeners (grain growth modifiers) such as thioethers, selenoethers, thioureas, or ammonia tend to facilitate reduction sensitization.
- the reduction sensitized silver halide emulsions prepared as described in this invention exhibit good photographic speed but usually suffer from undesirable fog and poor storage stability.
- reduction sensitizers and environments which may be used during precipitation or spectrochemical sensitization to reduction sensitize an emulsion include ascorbic acid derivatives; tin compounds; polyamine compounds; and thiourea dioxide-based compounds described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,487,850; 2,512,925; and British Patent 789,823.
- Specific examples of reduction sensitizers or conditions, such as dimethylamineborane, stannous chloride, hydrazine, high pH (pH 8-11) and low pAg (pAg 1-7) ripening are discussed by S. Collier in Photographic Science and Engineering, 23,113 (1979).
- the method of this invention is also particularly useful with emulsions doped with Group VIII metals such as iridium, rhodium, osmium and iron as described in Research Disclosure, December 1989, Item 308119, published by Kenneth Mason Publications, Ltd., Dudley Annex, 12a North Street, Emswirth, Hampshire P010 7DQ, ENGLAND. It is common practice in the art to dope emulsions with these metals for reciprocity control.

It is common practice in the art to dope emulsions with these metals for reciprocity control.
- a method of manufacturing a silver halide emulsion by chemically sensitizing the emulsion in the presence of an iridium salt and a photographic spectral sensitizing dye is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,693,965.
- the low intensity reciprocity failure characteristics of a silver halide emulsion may be improved, without significant reduction of high intensity speed, by incorporating iridium ion into the silver halide grains after or toward the end of the precipitation of the grains is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,997,751.
- the use of osmium in precipitating an emulsion is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,933,272 (McDugle).
- emulsions show an increased fresh fog and a lower contrast sensitometric curve when processed in the color reversal E-6 process as described in The British Journal of Photography Annual, 1982, pages 201-203.
- the iridium doped emulsions of this invention sensitized with disulfide present during the sensitization showed a dramatic decrease in fresh fog and higher contrast.
- the high temperature storage stability of the unexposed film was also improved by the practice of this invention by reducing the change in speed.
- the photographic elements of this invention can be non-chromogenic silver image forming elements. They can be single color elements or multicolor elements. Multicolor elements typically contain dye image-forming units sensitive to each of the three primary regions of the visible spectrum. Each unit can be comprised of a single emulsion layer or of multiple emulsion layers sensitive to a given region of the spectrum.
- the layers of the element, including the layers of the image-forming units, can be arranged in various orders as known in the art.
- the emulsions sensitive to each of the three primary regions of the spectrum can be disposed as a single segmented layer, e.g., as by the use of microvessels as described in Whitmore U.S. Pat. No. 4,362,806 issued Dec. 7, 1982.
- the element can contain additional layers such as filter layers, interlayers, overcoat layers, subbing layers and the like.
- the silver halide emulsions employed in the elements of this invention can be either negative-working or positive-working.
- suitable emulsions and their preparation are described in Research Disclosure Sections I and II and the publications cited therein.
- Some of the suitable vehicles for the emulsion layers and other layers of elements of this invention are described in Research Disclosure Section IX and the publications cited therein.
- the silver halide emulsions can be chemically and spectrally sensitized in a variety of ways, examples of which are described in Sections III and IV of the Research Disclosure.
- the elements of this invention can include various dye-forming couplers including but not limited to those described in Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraphs D, E, F and G and the publications cited therein. These couplers can be incorporated in the elements and emulsions as described in Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraph C and the publications cited therein.
- the photographic elements of this invention or individual layers thereof can contain among other things brighteners (Examples in Research Disclosure Section V), antifoggants and stabilizers (Examples in Research Disclosure Section VI), antistain agents and image dye stabilizers (Examples in Research Disclosure Section VII, paragraphs I and J), light absorbing and scattering materials (Examples in Research Disclosure Section VIII), hardeners (Examples in Research Disclosure Section X), plasticizers and lubricants (Examples in Research Disclosure Section XII), antistatic agents (Examples in Research Disclosure Section XIII), matting agents (Examples in Research Disclosure Section XVI) and development modifiers (Examples in Research Disclosure Section XXI).
- the photographic elements can be coated on a variety of supports including but not limited to those described in Research Disclosure Section XVII and the references described therein.
- Photographic elements can be exposed to actinic radiation, typically in the visible region of the spectrum, to form a latent image as described in Research Disclosure Section XVIII and then processed to form a visible dye image examples of which are described in Research Disclosure Section XIX.
- Processing to form a visible dye image includes the step of contacting the element with a color developing agent to reduce developable silver halide and oxidize the color developing agent. Oxidized color developing agent in turn reacts with the coupler to yield a dye.
- the processing step described above gives a negative image.
- this step can be preceded by development with a non-chromogenic developing agent to develop exposed silver halide, but not form dye, and then uniformly fogging the element to render unexposed silver halide developable, and then developed with a color developer.
- the preceding process can be employed but before uniformly fogging the emulsion the remaining silver halide is dissolved and the developed silver is converted back to silver halide; the conventional E-6 process is then continued and results in a negative color image.
- a direct positive emulsion can be employed to obtain a positive image.
- Embodision A An iridium doped, 1.6- ⁇ m 2% iodide silver bromoiodide emulsion (Emulsion A) was precipitated by adding to a precipitation vessel 6.72 L of a water solution containing 546.4 g sodium bromide, 26.72 g potassium iodide, and 248 g bone gelatin.

- Fog was determined by developing a black and white image for four minutes followed by forming a negative color image as described previously for reversal process. After fresh testing, coatings were kept at 120° F. and 50% relative humidity for 2 weeks for testing storage stability. Change in Dmax and speed due to the keeping condition was expressed as %Dmax and Dspeed. LIK is the speed change after exposure when kept at 78° F., 50% relative humidity for 2 weeks.

- Compound II-1 when added in the sensitization provided significant reductions in fresh fog without large speed loss, and significantly less fog growth (less %Dmas loss) as well as less speed and Dmax losses when coatings were stored at 120 degrees F. and 50% relative humidity for 2 weeks. These same effects were obtained with Compound II-1 added after sensitization but only at higher concentrations.

- the resulting coatings contained 870.3 mg Ag/m 2 , 3,229.2 mg gelatin/m 2 , 969 mg Compound P/m 2 , and 26.9 mg Compound Q/m 2 .
- the dried coatings were exposed through a graduated density tablet using a 5500K light source for 0.02 second, filtered with a Kodak Wratten 29 separation filter. Exposed coating were processed for 3 minutes, 15 second in C-41 color negative process.
- Emulsion ZA (comparison) was similar to Emulsion Z in Example 9 except that the hold time at 60° C. during sensitization is 25 minutes.
- Emulsion ZA1 (invention) is similar to Emulsion Z1 in Example 9 except that the Compound II-1 level is 3.325 ⁇ 10 -5 g/Ag mol and the hold time at 60° C. is 25 minutes.
- Emulsion ZA2 (invention) is similar to Emulsion ZA1 except that the Compound II-1 level is 3.325 ⁇ 10 -4 g/Ag mol.
- Emulsion ZA3 (invention) is similar to Emulsion ZA1 except that the Compound II-1 level is 3.325 ⁇ 10 -3 g/Ag mol.
- Emulsion ZA4 (invention) is similar to Emulsion ZA1 except that the Compound II-1 level is 8.313 ⁇ 10 -3 g/Ag mol.
- Emulsions ZA, ZA1, ZA2, ZA3, and ZA4 were prepared for coating; coated, exposed, and processed as in Example 9.
- Table X indicate a preferred operating range for Compound II-1 in the sensitization of this silver bromoiodide emulsion in these elements between 3.325 ⁇ 10 -3 and 8.313 ⁇ 10 -3 g/Ag mol. Whereas lower levels of Compound II-1 do not significantly decrease fresh D-min, they do diminish the D-min changes after RSK.
- Emulsion Z1 from Example 9 was coated in the Least Red Sensitive Layer (Layer 3) of the photographic film of this example.
- a three color photographic film was prepared as follows using conventional surfactants, antifoggants and the materials indicated.
- excellent results e.g. improved color, sharpness, granularity and neutral scale, were obtained.
- All silver halide emulsions were stabilized with 1.75 gm 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,3,3a,7-tetraazaindene per mole of silver. All silver halide emulsions were sensitized with the appropriate spectral red, green and blue sensitizing dyes.
